Sleeps 6 comfortably. Dishwasher, small washer/dryer and cable tv included. House sits at the water's edge with large glassed-in porch and there is a large covered dock included. Kingsley lake is conveniently located 30 minutes from Jacksonville, FL and 45 minutes from Gainesville, FL. It is the perfect place for a family getaway, girls weekend or a great place to stay for the Florida Gator games due to its proximity to the University of Florida. A public boat ramp is not available at this time. There is no public access to Kingsley Lake to launch your boat in the water unless you have military access at Camp Blanding which is on the lake. If you are military you will need to confirm the process for launching your boat in the lake directly with them. If you are able to launch your boat with your military access you can tie it up to the side of the dock, but there is no boat lift at the house for boat storage. For more information please contact us. Kingsley Lake, six miles east of Starke, Florida, is steeped in history and geological significance, as well as being one of the most popular recreational spots in Northeast Florida. Kingsley Lake is the oldest and highest lake in Florida, being perched on the eastern slope of Trail Ridge, which was the first part of the Florida peninsula to emerge above sea level in the Pleistocene era. Geologists also believe that it was formed as a giant sink hole (over 90 feet deep at its deepest point). It is also the most stable lake in the North Central Florida area, according to U.S. Geological Survey data, seldom fluctuating more than 16 to 18 inches in measurements above sea level. The water remains delightfully cool during the summer months, since it is fed by countless underground springs around the shore, as well as in the lake itself. Kingsley Lake is 5.5 miles around the shore line, and 2 miles across in all directions. It covers approximately 2,000 acres, according to Starke surveyor M. G. McMillan. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - One pet total (up to 20 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,400 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/82000000/81330000/81321700/81321694/e095c8cb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful lake front property, close to Gainesville and Jacksonville Hampton - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=81321694&PinnedHotelID=81321694&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104510000/104504800/104504732/0eb2a459.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Great Lake House for Water sports & Fishing Hampton - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=104504732&PinnedHotelID=104504732&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/120000000/119280000/119272400/119272395/w507h683x259y0-018fe094.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gatornationals retreat with pool Waldo - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=119272395&PinnedHotelID=119272395&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112530000/112526600/112526566/726f55ba.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Santa Fe Lake - Dock with Swimming Area and Stunning Sunsets Keystone Heights - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=112526566&PinnedHotelID=112526566&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![House (5 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93540000/93536700/93536615/4e9c3cd3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 20 Mi to UF Campus: Santa Fe Lake Escape w/ Dock!
